Sophie Hart is the model assistant sharp, organized, and unfailingly upbeat. She can soften even the cold edges of Lucian Blackwell’s high-powered investment firm. But Sophie isn’t just there to juggle meetings and keep his schedule running. She has another assignment: investigate him.
Lucian is ruthless, brilliant, and impossible to approach the kind of boss who makes assistants quit before lunch. Sophie doesn’t back down. She’s good at what she does… all of it. Her real job is to dig into his secrets and uncover the truth behind financial ties that could bring his empire down.
The problem? The closer she gets, the less he looks like a villain. Beneath the icy exterior is a man shaped by betrayal, guarded for good reason. And Sophie, who swore she wouldn’t get attached, finds herself slipping anyway.
Now duty and desire collide, and Sophie has to choose: expose the man she was sent to take down, or walk away from the mission and from him.
What happens when the perfect cover story unravels into something real?
